The switch is grounded by the clamp around the steering column. Take a stiff shot of your favorite brew and scrape the paint where it mounts. The switch must be grounded or the indicator light will not work.

You should find a place inside to attach your ground wire. That is a more reasonable solution vs scraping the paint.
